About This Home
As of June 2025Discover timeless charm and modern comfort in this picturesque Capitol Hill residence, nestled on a serene tree-lined street. Built in 1908, this elegant 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home offers over 2,630 square feet of beautifully finished living space across three levels. From the inviting front garden to the expansive backyard, this home is ideal for relaxing, entertaining, and enjoying city living. Step through original French doors into a light-filled vestibule where 10-foot ceilings, original hardwood floors, and custom trim work evoke the home’s historic roots. The open-concept main level features a spacious living room with a striking bay window and a formal dining area adorned with a crystal chandelier and vintage tin wallpaper. The well-appointed kitchen is a chef’s dream, boasting stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, a generous breakfast bar for four, and direct access to the private backyard. A convenient powder room and a washer/dryer complete this level. Upstairs, the sun-drenched Primary Suite offers a peaceful retreat with a bay window and a luxurious ensuite bath. Two additional bedrooms—one with its own private deck—share a stylish full bathroom. The versatile lower level, with private entrances, provides a flexible layout ideal for a den, in-law suite, or potential rental unit. This space includes a kitchenette, a third full bath, and a utility room with ample storage and a second laundry. Recent updates include HVAC/split system, cooktop, and dishwasher (2024). Ideally located just blocks from the Capitol, Metro, Eastern Market, Union Station, Stanton Park, neighborhood shops and dining, and in-bounds for Brent Elementary—this exceptional home combines the best of historic elegance and modern living in an unbeatable location.
